| Description | Teaching is one of the most rewarding professions on the planet but at the same time it can be exhausting. Twin the stress of the demands placed on us by students, parents and institutions with our desire to give 100%, and we may find ourselves hurtling towards Burnout Syndrome before we even realise it. This talk considers why teachers suffer from burnout, goes on to identify some of the tell-tale signs of the syndrome and how we can recognise its onset, before offering some practical ideas that we can implement to stop and refuel in time to make sure we’re on fire in the classroom and not burnt out. |
